    My grip strength is lacking

    I find it interesting when supposed/assumed limits are placed on others because of personal inability. Seems to be some manner of innate human psychological quality.

    Stength training and muscle fibers?

    Neural improvements. That's when you consume maintenance Cals. Of course, if you eat enough, you'd probably also grow larger, which partially negates the topic.

    My grip strength is lacking

    I do not agree. I own the COCs, and the quality he is seeking to enhance is "supporting" strength (strength-endurance on the isometric), not crushing strength (a dynamic action with a concentric and eccentric). As such, I don't think the COCs are suitable to that end. Pinch grips...

    My grip strength is lacking

    lol You'd be amazed at how many "rules" are really just opinions. There's more to growth than JUST tension. Tension is simply the most important factor. Still, not the only one. Just as the eccentric is the most important part of a rep. Your forearms grow from Deadlifting, even...

    My grip strength is lacking

    Have you tried holding the bar in your hands with an excessive load for time in a power rack? Or, alternatively, hanging from a bar or rafter with extra weight added to your body? Farmer's Walks?

    Patellar Tendonitis

    Perhaps you meant something other than what you typed. ?

    I wouldn't even bother taking CLA.

    Patellar Tendonitis

    Eccentric-ONLY training has shown great promise in tendon remodeling. If you combined that with sulfur-donating substances, as well as super-high-rep sets with very light resistance to induce lactate production and promote blood reaching the area, as well as possible synovial fluid kinetics...

    CNS and muscle

    How heavy are you talking about in this instance? I don't have a training partner, as human beings cannot be depended upon, and feeding another's training mood grows tiresome, so that means I probably won't be able to use this information. However, I may have the option in about nine months...

    methyldienolone

    It has shown itself to be ineffective for three females I have supervised. If it doesn't work well in females, then....

    heat can reduce atrophy

    Honestly, I'd consider such a thing to be minutia. I might be inclined to take a hot shower, though. If I wanted to, non-pharmacologically, prevent atrophy (apart from using training and diet), I'd probably employ the shower thing, and right after, follow it with STRONG EMS usage, and then...

    Cybex machines -- ugh

    No.

    Impending US prohormone ban

    The faxes, emails, letters, and calls will do nothing to stop this. If we had been organized and affiliated with a large (and preferably wealthy) voter base, then, and only then, would we possibly have a chance to fight it.

    SST and HST

    There has to be an SST before it be connected to HST. There are several strength routines. They do not, IMO, constitute SST, or -at least- what SST "should" be. The closest template is probably WSB, but that includes some non-SST flotsam.

    Exogenous hormones and bone growth

    It does seem to be affected more by estrogen. No one can say for sure. Can't say how much someone "would have" grown.

    Taurine and Clenbuterol

    Whatever is on Pubmed. A lot of this has been discovered empirically, too.

    Negative Only Training

    I have found the same to be true via experience. I may have mentioned it on this board before. Eccentric-only training can produce some of the very best size gains for me, on or off AAS, if I am able to find someone who can help me do them consistently. It doesn't put a dent in my nervous...

    Taurine and Clenbuterol

    The Taurine may help prevent cardiac damage, and may help extend the period of clenbuterol use. Mainly the former. It would be wise to take taurine if you take clen, basically.

    Metformin

    As Aaron said. I have tried it several times. The only time it arguably had an effect on my physique is when I stacked it with glyburide, and I gained a little fat (although the combination made my veins stick out like crazy in weird places). It really will do you NO good. I've tried it at...

    Metformin

    It will not help your efforts. Been there, done that.
